Truth Wrought Words
GA 40

Wordsetheanum

In that spirit's name that proclaims itself to striving souls, I appear at this moment to people who from now on wish to hear the word that solemnly resounds here. The powers that direct our Earthly goals can reveal themselves finally in full consciousness. As the powers of a child meant to carry the ability to know must mature and strengthen gradually, just so humanity as a whole had to develop in its earthly course. The soul's impulses lived in dullness at first, but later started to become worthy of seeing the spiritual light from higher worlds.
